This week, we did another project for a client in Bonita Springs.

Ms. Benton hired us to restore her pool enclosure. She availed the lifetime restoration package which uses materials that are better and have a long warranty. 

Before we get started, we first cover the pool and deck with plastic to avoid getting paint and debris on it. You can see the plastic on the walls in the photo below with a work in progress sign. After, we remove the screen so it’s easier to paint the frames. Then, we replace the rusty fasteners (see the lower left photo below) with the Nylo-tec model which comes with a 10-year warranty. For the paint, we use electrostatic paint which is more efficient to use on metal surfaces. Once the paint dries, we re-screened all the panels with Superscreen 14/16 mesh.

Can you see the lizard in the photo above? That’s what happens when a pool cage has damaged screens. Other than lizards, frogs, mosquitoes, and snakes can get inside your pool area if you don’t have an enclosure. After we worked on this enclosure (check out the after photos on the right), our client won’t have to deal with this reptile and insects anymore.
